Monika Rostomian began teaching ballet at Nevada Ballet Theatre in 2001. She came to the Academy from Russia where she received her training in the Vaganova method at the St. Petersburg (Kirov) Ballet Academy under the tutelage of famed prima ballerina Natalia Dudinskaya. She has performed throughout Europe, Asia and North and South America as soloist with many ballet companies, including Moscow Festival Ballet and Ballet of Russia. During her career she had also served as a ballet mistress and choreographer.

Monika later graduated from the Moscow State Institute of Theatrical Art and was awarded its coveted teaching diploma.
Her teaching skills encompass all levels of ballet and character dance, ranging from five year old beginner to advanced-professionals. She also qualifies in special training for figure skaters and in dance therapy for the psychological rehabilitation of children.

Monika is dedicated to the highest standards of excellence in every aspect of her teaching. Nevada Rhythmic Academy is very lucky and fortunate to have her polishing our rhythmic girls since 2020.
